  abstract = {{U}sing a global model of ocean biogeochemistry coupled to a climate model, we explore the effect of climate change on the distribution of diatoms, a key phytoplankton functional group. {O}ur model results suggest that climate change leads to more nutrient-depleted conditions in the surface ocean and that it favors small phytoplankton at the expense of diatoms. {A}t 4x{CO}(2), diatoms relative abundance is reduced by more than 10% at the global scale and by up to 60% in the {N}orth {A}tlantic and in the subantarctic {P}acific. {T}his simulated change in the ecosystem structure impacts oceanic carbon uptake by reducing the efficiency of the biological pump, thus contributing to the positive feedback between climate change and the ocean carbon cycle. {H}owever, our model simulations do not identify this biological mechanism as a first-order process in the response of ocean carbon uptake to climate change.},
